Introduction
The guide covers the installation details which are related to Enterprise Applications on Lightweight 5G Telco Edge (EALTEdge) Blueprint.
...
The number of Hardware requirements depends mainly on the Use Case Scenario and the enterprise scale. A use case can have one MECM Cluster with one or multiple MEC Host clusters.
The minimum number of nodes minimum number of logical nodes(all 3 nodes can be depployed on single VM or on multiple VMs ) required for a complete EALTEdge Topology is three. (Bare-Metal or Virtual Machines)

Installation High-Level Overview
The blueprint provides one click deployment for installing the EALTEdge blueprint components.
EALTEdge Installation Mode:
EALTEdge supports 2 Mode of installation: Multi Node and All-In-One (AIO) Node deployment.
AIO mode:
In this mode, all 3 nodes (OCD which is deployment node, Center node and Edge node) are deployed on single VM.
The logical deployment topology can be seen here.
MUNO Mode:
In this mode, all 3 nodes (OCD which is deployment node, Center node and Edge node) can be deployed on multiple VM.
This mode can have a OCD node deployed on a VM, Center node deployed on same OCD VM or on different VM and EDGE node deployed on different VM.
The logical deployment topology can be seen here.

...
Once the execution is completed in console will see prompt "EALTEdge Environment Installed , Components Install CENTER and EDGE Nodes Successfully"
...
##Now get ca certificate use below command
```
curl http://10.43.130.35:8200/v1/pki/ca/pem
```
##10.43.130.35 is your vault ip, need to replace with latest vault ip
